Re: 4/06 Results Show Discussion **Spoilers**

West coast checking in. I'm sorry to see Buzz go befofe Kate. He was always a hero to me. I don't honestly give a rip about Jake as IMHO he was never qualifed to be on the show in the first place.

Folks obviously didn't listen to my earlier mantra: "A vote for Buzz is a vote against Kate". Remember my words next time. The mantra is now "A vote for Jake (blech) is a vote against Kate". I will hold my nose and send some votes Jake's way.

Re: 4/06 Results Show Discussion **Spoilers**

I think when they said the bottom two that means that Buzz had the least amount of votes and Jake had the second to least amount of votes. So after the votes combined with the judges scores they were the actual bottom two. Right?

I don't blame him for being miffed. It's a pretty sad statement that Kate has a bigger fanbase than an 80-something American Patriot who at least is trying and inspiring in a way for some. ! Who is Kate anyway ? Just a mother of eight who decided to exploit herself and her kids on TV ... right ? I don't think she's particularly attractive or the least bit entertaining on this show. I mean even her partner Tony wanted to quit ! Replace her with Cloris Leachman.

Well, I for one did vote for Buzz the first two weeks then threw my votes to Pam this week as it looked like she needed them more. From now on, I'll vote for whoever scores directly higher than Kate.

Unless Tom says otherwise, then I beleive it's the real bottom 2. So while the rest of the couples are in random order in being announced safe, Jake and Buzz were the bottom 2.

I think everyone's been hitting the nail on the head as to what the big issue is. She's in the league of worst dancers to ever be on this show. Ashley Hamilton, Cloris, the Woz, Master P, and yet she's getting somewhat better scores from the judges and they aren't attacking her like they would one of the above or any other couple. If anyone that wasn't Kate gave a jive or paso like she did, they would have gotten blasted out of the ballroom by the judges wrath, and on top of it probably gotten 2s and 3s at most. Something about Kate and especially Tony seems a little happier than I'd like to see them this week. As I said, even Tony can't continue to justify why Kate should stay if she doesn't improve, either in her attitude or in her dancing. And I doubt either is coming. Unfortuantely, if this show's track record in promoting train wrecks that are even as horrible and wretched as her keep up, she could very well last past next week. I think there's a possibility that she could outlast Aiden and potentially Niecy, Jake, and Pamela. There is typically a huge shocking elimination on DWTS, so if it comes in the form of Erin, Evan, or Nicole and Kate is still standing? Heads will be rolling. The producers can think it's great publicity and controversy all they want, but why would you want press that's saying your show is rigged for a lying heffer?

The scoring system seems pretty complicated and I'm not quite sure I understand it totally. I know I read somewhere that it is the percentage of Judges points added to the percentage of total audience votes to equal the total percentages of each couple. And that determines who ends up in the bottom two.
